Successful Install and Logged In, Blank Desktop! Please HELP!!!

*Please Help!* I have sucessfully installed Leopard and was able to login, but when my desktop comes up my menu bar, dock, harddrive and desktop icons show for maybe 5-10 seconds and goes away. Can't select anything!! Spoke with Support before they closed and they recommended an Archive and Reinstall. Did that, still doesn't work. Now there closed and I need help! I've done a PRAM reset and ran Disk Utilitys and everything came back good?? Please Help

Hey RodneyW, first off I would like to say thanks for taking the time to help out. After Repairing Permissions it still didn't work. I was however able to login using a different account. After doing so I deleted a app called Dates to iCal, I remembered it was for 10.4, restarted and was able to login. Yeah!! I think because it was a 10.4 compatible program and ran in the background it was causing the system to crash when it would attempt to start itself a login. Anyhow thanks again for the help..

  • Fresh snow leopard install and still same problem. Please help :(

    hello.
    After 10.6.3 update....
    I had issues with trackpad and keyboard freezing on my early 2008 macbook pro.
    I have tried to reset pram, nvram, smc, onyx maintance everything i could think of.
    So i decided to wipe hard drive clean and do fresh install. Everything was working fine until i applied 10.6.3 update.
    Is there any fix for this yet ?
    It still doesnt work good even with fresh install of snow leopard and 10.6.3 update.
    Thank you

    I've read a lot on the Internet about alien UFO crashes too, but that doesn't mean it is a good idea to take them at face value.
    If something doesnt work after clean install then thats updates issue.
    Not necessarily, at least if you mean the OS update itself. Do a little research. This same argument pops up after every OS update. There are no exceptions -- every one of them has been blamed for all manner of post-update problem, linked to each of several different models, & everything else you have read on the Internet about this one. Users also frequently use the "clean install" argument in support of these theories that the update, whichever one it happens to be, is the only possible culprit.
    The problem is these theories rarely prove to have any merit at all, & like with most such things, even when there is some merit to them, the complete explanation is more complicated. For instance, some users do a perfectly executed clean install & then ruin it by reintroducing the same bit of software that was the real problem in the first place. Some users don't know what a clean install is & mistakenly say they did one. Some eventually find & eliminate a different cause for their particular problems but never report that. Sometimes coincidence is involved -- with millions of users upgrading the chances that in some cases it is not are slim to none.
    Basically, it is like anything else on the Internet. You can find something to support anything imaginable because people can imagine anything & too many of them ignore anything that doesn't support that or just don't make the effort to look for it in the first place.

  • Hi, I already installed photoshop trial version and three weeks later I paid on-line for 300 Baht for buy it but it still ask me to join and pay for it.  How can I update it in my log in account. Please help.

    Hi, I already installed photoshop trial version and three weeks later I paid on-line for 300 Baht for buy it but it still ask me to join and pay for it.  How can I update it in my log in account. Please help.?

    You do not buy Photoshop for 300 baht, you are renting it for that much a month. You set up an account with a valid credit card and to see if it is active, you go here. https://www.adobe.com/account/my-products-services.html  Look under my Subscriptions.
    If all is good, then with the same Adobe ID/password, select "License this Product" and sign in, or Help > Sign in.
    That will license it.

    - Have you tried the troubleshooting here:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    - You can try disabling the camer notification

    - Do you have any camera, scanner or similar software installed?  That may prevent iTunes from seeing the iPod.

  • Problem after installing firmware 1.4... please help!

    Hi all, i recently upgraded to firmware 1.4 (the recent available version)... and now, every few minutes the fan generates big noises (also generating heats around the speaker area)... i looked into the Activity Monitor and i found that there are some processes that are actually using up >50% CPU usage, but the strange thing is, i wasn't using these softwares at all...
    the reason why i said it is a problem with the firmware upgrade is that, this problem didn't happen to me before upgrading.. and beside this upgrade, i didn't install any other software thereafter...
    can some body please help me? is there anything i can do? or can i restore the firmware back to the previous version? thanks in advance.

    Thanks Sweet Polly. But the fireware restoration they talked about on that page is only for those who had problem DURING the fireware installation. "Note: This CD cannot be used to return an Intel-based Macintosh computer's firmware to a previous version if a successful update has already been performed.". i've got the fireware 1.4 successfully installed, and i want to restore it back to my previous version...

    AppleWorks is a very old application and requires Rosetta to run under recent systems.
    Lion does not include Rosetta.

    Please describe the problem in as much relevant detail as possible. The "etrecheck" fad hasn't made that step any less necessary. The usual results of posting etrecheck output on this site without a full description of the problem are very poor.
    The many "failed" warnings that etrecheck sometimes spews mean nothing. Those warnings are not a reason to reinstall the OS, or to do anything else at all. They should be ignored.
    The better your description of the problem, the better the chance of a solution.
    For example, if the computer is slow, which specific actions are slow? Is it slow all the time, or only sometimes? What changes did you make, if any, just before it became slow? Have you seen any alerts or error messages? Have you done anything to try to fix it? Most importantly, do you have a current backup of all data? If the answer to the last question is "no," back up now. Ask if you need guidance. Do nothing else until you have a backup.
